What killed the guitar solo? Some of what I look at:
* Early guitar heroes like Jimi Hendrix and Jimmy Page, and the next generation like Randy Rhoads, Zakk Wylde and Slash
* The peak of the guitar solo with the hair metal and shred guitar scenes (Yngwie Malmsteen, etc)
* The role of grunge and nu-metal bands like Nirvana, Soundgarden, Korn and Limp Bizkit
* How the breakdown replaced the guitar solo with the rise of metalcore, deathcore and djent
* Modern shred guitarists and influencers like Jason Richardson, Tim Henson of Polyphia, Ola Englund, etc
